In the instance the Devourers appeared, the entire battlefield seemed to be shrouded in purplish dark clouds. That incomparably dense purplish black venom was akin to lumps of purplish fog, as it frantically sprayed towards the enemy. Every time an enemy Mountain Banshee was struck, the venom would splatter in all directions. Not only would it stain the victim's body, it would also form a large scale AOE attack, affecting other creatures.
What was even stranger was that the venom seemed to have an indescribable stickiness to it. It gave people the feeling that once they were hit by it, they would definitely stick to their bodies. Thick green smoke could even be seen rising from the surface of any living being that came into contact with the venom! Naturally, their skin was in a state of frenzied corrosion.
The 3 mighty Great Leonopteryx were directly obstructed by 21 purplish black gigantic Devourers! In a flash, copious amounts of purplish black viscous venom struck them. Finally, they released incomparably agonizing cries, as they flapped their wings and pounced towards their foes. Yet one could distinctly observe, even with the formidable defensive capabilities of the 3 Great Leonopteryx, they were similarly corroded by that nauseating venom. Dripping profusely from their bodies, they appeared battered and exhausted.
Although the individual combat prowess of these Devourers was vastly inferior to the Great Leonopteryx, they similarly weren't as frail as the Mutalisks. Especially their fleshy abdomen, which appeared to be an exceedingly glaring weak point. But in reality, at least 3/4 of them were composed of a thick chitin carapace and sturdy muscles.
Their abdomen was the size of a room, yet their frail innards only occupied a space roughly the size of a refrigerator! One could tell how meticulous their defenses were! Hence, if the enemy violently attacked this' vital point ', they would instead fall into the Devourer's trap! If the Great Leonopteryx directly attacked the Devourer's head and chest, then 3 strikes would be sufficient to inflict heavy damage. But if the Great Leonopteryx first attacked its massive abdomen, then it would require at least 5 strikes to kill it!
Strangely, following the accumulation of poisonous phlegm on the surface of the Great Leonopteryx of Pandora's overlords, Mother Nature Eywa's blessing seemed to be ineffective. One could observe the skin of the three mighty Great Leonopteryx emitting 'chi chi' fumes, as the phlegm seeped into their skin.
Moreover, regardless of whether it was flapping their wings or making any other movements, it was obviously much more strenuous. The thick liquid accumulated on the surface of their bodies was like glue, indirectly restricting their movements, and indirectly exhausting their physical strength!
"This Devourer is really powerful!" Upon witnessing this scene, Brother Black couldn't help but exclaim with a solemn expression. "Just his attack alone possesses three passive abilities! AoE attack, continuously stacking to corrode the enemy's armor, continuously stacking to slow down the enemy's attack speed! "
Sheyan observed for a while and said:
"It should also have high HP and high flying speed. However, its weakness is also very obvious. It should be weak against attacks on the ground. Because according to its physiological structure, it should be able to dive close to the enemy and shoot at them. This way, it would be easy for the ground troops to catch it alive. "
At this moment, Reef finally heaved a long sigh of worry and exclaimed.
"Fuck, so the Blackthorn Overmind actually kept such a trump card at this moment. In my opinion, being weak against ground attacks isn't a bad thing. Focusing on a single aspect is truly terrifying!"
Following the participation of the Devourers, the aerial situation instantly turned from crisis to safety. The enemy's assault was obviously just a step away from destroying the Mother nest, and had even reached a distance of 10 plus metres from the Mother nest. Yet, like an arrow at the end of its flight, it couldn't penetrate through the silk cloth, and couldn't advance even an inch further. The three Great Leonopteryx exhausted the strength of nine oxen and two tigers to eliminate the 20 plus Devourers obstructing their path. Yet, they immediately discovered another 10 plus Devourers surging in!!
At present, their bodies were already smeared with the purplish black phlegm of the Devourers. Even flapping their wings was exceedingly strenuous. Furthermore, after these three mighty creatures were trapped, the remaining aerial forces were practically massacred, and were in a state of absolute disadvantage. A small number of Devourers of the arachnid race, mixed with the Mutalisks and massive amounts of Suicide Hoverbats, caused the situation to rapidly tip towards the arachnid side!
Another ten minutes passed. The three Great Leonopteryx were also very valiant. They managed to grab and gnaw at the ten Devourers in front of them. To the despair of the players, another six Devourers that had just hatched flew out. At this time, the three Great Leonopteryx were already covered in wounds. Just dealing with these six Devourers alone was already very difficult. Even more despairing was the fact that at least a few hundred Mutalisks and two to three hundred Suicide Bombers had completely blocked off the surrounding area, making it so that not even a drop of water could pass through!
As for the remaining aerial forces, they had actually been completely annihilated!!!!
In this battle, the arachnids had paid an exceedingly hefty price. Yet, they had once again defended their homeland, and actually annihilated their foes. That terrifying and tenacious tenacity, caused the spectating contestants to involuntarily feel an indescribable reverence in their hearts. Indeed, the Blackthorn Overmind's terrifying battlefield calculation capabilities, could only be described as a grandmaster class.
Under such circumstances, the chances of survival of those 3 Great Leonopteryx were practically zero ….. yet the pride of a king spurred them to never lower their heads, and never fear. Their eyes still emitted an incomparably savage glint, as they simultaneously flapped their wings and howled towards the heavens; intending to bleed their foes to the very last drop of blood!
At this moment, Sheyan's heart stirred, as he communicated with his spirit.
"Blackthorn Overmind! Let them go! "
The Blackthorn Overmind hesitated a little before replying.
"My friend, these are 3 extremely terrifying and formidable creatures. My previously stored pandora crystals are already running low. If I were to let them go, then the next time they strike, my losses would be even greater. The probability of not being able to withstand the next wave of assault is 43.71%!"
Sheyan earnestly replied.
"This is a great opportunity to display your sincerity, and obtain the initiative to negotiate! You've already displayed your individual prowess in front of Mother Nature Eywa! Now is the time for you to express your goodwill, and inform her that you're not an enemy! "
"These 3 Great Leonopteryx are already riddled with scars. Two of their legs have sustained irrecoverable injuries. The worst possibility is – If you were to release them, the negotiations would break down, and they would return in a swirl of dust. Even then, they would only be able to display 60% of their prowess today. Instead, the benefits of releasing them would be much greater! Trust me! You can't possibly continue to be enemies with a consciousness that can control an entire planet's creatures. At least, it's impossible now! "
The Blackthorn Overmind hesitated a little, obviously communicating with the Mother of the Blackthorns – Shengong. Then, he controlled the arachnid creatures to open up a massive gap, allowing the 3 Great Leonopteryx to escape. Although these three proud fellows would rather die than submit, that was only when they were in a desperate situation. Now that the enemy had given them a way out, they naturally flapped their wings, which were riddled with wounds and covered in poisonous spittle, and flew away.
Instead, the Blackthorn Overmind seized the opportunity to continue constructing his organ structures, and replenish his drones to harvest ores. If there was another wave, then these matters had to be properly prepared. Besides, the remaining energy of the crystals and rare ores he plundered from that planet was already depleted.
Roughly 10 minutes after the Great Leonopteryx had flown away, Sheyan suddenly felt a peculiar sensation. Although there wasn't any wind in the surroundings, the leaves of the nearby forest had started to gently sway incessantly, emitting rustling sounds. Following closely, a light drizzle descended from the sky. Unknowingly, the clouds in the sky had congregated like a whirlpool, and the drizzle felt extremely refreshing. Moreover, a peculiar odour permeated the air.
Sheyan had never smelled such an odour in the present world before. Not long ago, he had caught a whiff of a similar odour on the grassy plains in front of the valkyrie. That was precisely the odour left behind after the valkyrie had incited the beast horde.
At this moment, Sheyan's heart finally started pounding. Because he knew, he was about to face the divinity of the na 'vi race, the true ruler of this planet – Mother Nature Eywa!
All of a sudden, on a grassy plain a hundred metres away from the arachnid base, various grass roots, tree barks, soil and shrubs congregated together as though they possessed their own spirit energy. They formed into a 5 metre tall na 'vi female sculpture. Sheyan then noticed that within the soil, there were numerous white filaments mixed within the composition of the sculpture.
This sculpture seemed to possess a life of its own, as it took several steps forward, as though it was adapting to its new body. Then, it gazed towards them. At the same time, it didn't make any other movements. Instead, every creature here, including the trio and the Blackthorn tribe, simultaneously resounded with a gentle yet sullen voice in their minds. That voice gave off a sensation as though it resonated with every cell in their bodies!
"Outsider! Leave this place. You've already threatened the balance of this planet. Avoid this senseless conflict! "
The Blackthorn Overmind's reply was exceedingly straightforward.
"I cannot leave. If not, I will either perish drifting in space, or perish under the tyrannical rule of the Queen. O 'Spirit of Nature of this planet, you cannot deprive me of my right to live for the sake of a possible threat! If not, I'd rather fight to the death with you till my last drop of blood! "
Eywa instead raised her hand and pointed towards the arachnid base.
"You are too dangerous. If you continue to strengthen, then even I will not be able to stop you!" If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes to me. Your support, is my greatest motivation.)
